My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Introducing Pepita! Pepita is a pretty girl who came to the shelter as a stray Imagine Pepita living alone on the streets - cold, alone and not sure where her next meal was coming from. Don’t worry, Pepita was lucky and brought in by a Good Samaritan and now, she cat is ready to start a whole new life with you! Sometimes stray cats need a little more time and space to get accustomed to living in a new home. It is always a good idea to start off your new cat in a dedicated space equipped with food, a bed, toys, and a litter box so they can decompress and get accustomed to the new sights, smells, and sounds. With some food, play, and patience, most cats will really enjoy being part of a family again. Can you help Pepita go from stray to cherished pet? Come and meet her today at Anti-Cruelty!
